in the general government , one of every three children was receiving some sort of education from the underground organizations ; the number rose to about 70 % for children old enough to attend secondary school . it is estimated that in some rural areas , the educational coverage was actually improved ( most likely as courses were being organized in some cases by teachers escaped or deported from the cities ) . compared to pre @ - @ war classes , the absence of polish jewish students was notable , as they were confined by the nazi germans to ghetto ##s ; there was , however , underground jewish education in the ghetto ##s , often organized with support from polish organizations like ton .
